2 Samuele 7:21 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 7:21

For thy word's sake
For the sake of the promise he had made to him by Samuel, that he should be king, and his kingdom should be established; or for the sake of the Messiah, that should spring from him; the Memra, as the Targum, the essential Word of God; and so the Septuagint version, "because of thy servant", with which agrees the parallel text in ( 1 Chronicles 17:19 ) ;

and according to thine own heart;
of his own sovereign good will and pleasure, of his own grace, as the Arabic version, and not according to the merits and deserts of David:

hast thou done all these great things;
in making him king of Israel, and settling the kingdom in his posterity to the times of the Messiah, who should spring from him:

to make thy servant know [them];
as he now did by Nathan the prophet, what he and his should enjoy for time to come; so that it is not only a blessing to have favours designed, purposed, and promised, but to have the knowledge of them, to know the things that are freely given of God.

2 Samuele 7:21 In-Context

19 E questo è parso ancora poca cosa agli occhi tuoi, o Signore, o Eterno; e tu hai parlato anche della casa del tuo servo per un lontano avvenire, sebbene questa tua legge, o Signore, o Eterno, si riferisca a degli uomini.
20 Che potrebbe Davide dirti di piĂą? Tu conosci il tuo servo, Signore, Eterno!
21 Per amor della tua parola e seguendo il cuor tuo, hai compiuto tutte queste grandi cose per rivelarle al tuo servo.
22 Tu sei davvero grande, o Signore, o Eterno! Nessuno è pari a te, e non v’è altro Dio fuori di te, secondo tutto quello che abbiamo udito coi nostri orecchi.
23 E qual popolo è come il tuo popolo, come Israele, l’unica nazione sulla terra che Dio sia venuto a redimere per formare il suo popolo, e per farsi un nome, e per compiere a suo pro cose grandi e tremende, cacciando d’innanzi al tuo popolo che ti sei redento dall’Egitto, delle nazioni coi loro dèi?
